How has the holiday shopping season affected Thanksgiving traditions?

English

Liula [17]3 years ago

The most commonly repeated story behind the post-Thanksgiving shopping-related Black Friday tradition links it to retailers. As the story goes, after an entire year of operating at a loss (“in the red”) stores would supposedly earn a profit (“went into the black”) on the day after Thanksgiving, because holiday shoppers blew so much money on discounted merchandise. Though it’s true that retail companies used to record losses in red and profits in black when doing their accounting, this version of Black Friday’s origin is the officially sanctioned—but inaccurate—story behind the tradition.

In what way does the hindenburg disaster demonstrate the effects that different media can have on a single event ?
Kazeer [188]

The Hindenburg disaster at Lakehurst, New Jersey on May 6, 1937 brought an end to the age of the rigid airship.

The disaster killed 35 persons on the airship, and one member of the ground crew, but miraculously 62 of the 97 passengers and crew survived.

After more than 30 years of passenger travel on commercial zeppelins — in which tens of thousands of passengers flew over a million miles, on more than 2,000 flights, without a single injury — the era of the passenger airship came to an end in a few fiery minutes.

What is the theme of the poem "choices" by nikki giovanni
Helen [10]
In the poem it talks about us as people not having the choices we think we should or believe we should have. My theme statement is that maybe sometimes what we expect we should have isnt always going to be for us .The poem talks about choices and on top of that going into further research, Giovanni created this poem right after her father died. The poem basically is saying that we don't have the choices we think we should have or believe but we know that life is short.
